Favorite Firefox addon that isn't just ublock, darkreader, etc? I throw out Singlefile but you probably have that (lemmy.ml)

Do not send me Chrome addons. I do not care that you have a worse version of uBlock

I think all of these also have Chrome versions, but still better on FF due to being able to install (or side-load if not listed or not whitelisted for mobile) onto the mobile version. The day I learned how to get non-whitelisted ones to install and install from xpi was game over for bothering with other mobile browsers.

FastStream for downloading videos from YT and a lot of other sites (I daily use it for grabbing stuff on Twitter)
Bypass Paywalls Clean for the obvious (this one is to the dev's not github but same kind of site site as it has to be installed via xpi)
Watch on Odysee for seeing if a YT channel also uploads to Odysee to go watch there if possible and at least give my view there
SponsorBlock for being able to skip hard-coded ads from the uploads and other sections of YT videos
DeArrow for being able to view titles for YT videos that are more reflective of content
Wayback Machine for saving pages to Archive.org along with saving them to my account on there.
Privacy Possum for more aggressive blocking of tracking (though it does require remembering it is on if a site breaks as it will block things that uBO isn't the cause of the issue)

Fuck yeah, i swear by sponsor block, I'm truly ad free with that, but also skipping intros and stuff is nice.
